Written by City News Service - One man was arrested and a firefighter was injured
today as several firefighters stopped the man from allegedly assaulting his
mother with a weapon, according to a police lieutenant.
 The incident took place about 9:45 p.m. in the 3000 block of Leeward
Avenue, just east of Vermont Avenue, said Los Angeles police Lt. Jonathan Tom,
watch commander at the Olympic Station.
 Firefighters were apparently called to the scene for reported fire but
instead found a man who was assaulting his mother with some kind of knife, Tom
said.
 The firefighters stopped the assault and held the man down on the ground
until police arrived to arrest him, Tom said.
 One firefighter suffered a cut to the face in the scuffle and was
transported to a hospital for treatment of his injuries. Tom said. The suspect
also suffered injuries in the melee and was taken to the hospital for
treatment.
 The woman who was later identified as the suspect's mother was not
injured.
 A video news photographer at the scene said a small fire did break out
in that block after the man was arrested. Firefighters extinguished the small
fire but it's not known if there was any connection between the two incidents.
 The suspect's name was not immediately available since he was still
awaiting booking, Tom said. LOUDLABS NEWS
